Help:Templates/YT

This is a template for videos hosted on YouTube.

It's pretty simple, use as so:

{{YT|ec4KB1XcXQU}}

... which is of the form ...

{{ template name | video id }}

The video ID is the last bit of a YouTube URL before any ampersands (&). For example:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ec4KB1XcXQU

The ID is the one used above.

The result will be as so:

(watch)

If you would like something different from "watch" to be the anchor (link) text, define (use) the text variable:

{{YT|ec4KB1XcXQU|text=A Muse video}}

...which is of the form...

{{ template name | video id | text = anchor text }}
